Crazy Lou woke up in the middle of the night, startled. His comm terminal screen was flashing. He was having another nightmare, but it was already vanishing in his mind while he got up from the bed to see what was it about.
He walked to the terminal and pressed a button. It was a message from Ted. He had arrived safely at Malta and succesfully delivered the merchandise, and would spend the rest of the day in the 'cast home planet, returning next night. That was only reasonable. Besides, a full day breathing that cardamine rich air would do wonders to Ted's withdrawal symptomes.
Lou quickly answered the message, and decided to smoke a spliff before returning to bed.
